Nauvoo

So back when we made our journey back from the east almost two months ago we stopped by Nauvoo and Carthage jail. And let me tell you...it was amazing! I was so glad that we had the opportunity to stop by there. It just strengthens my respect for the pioneers and Joseph Smith 100 times! The Nauvoo temple is just beautiful! We were able to go in and do a session and see the inside, and I couldn't believe how pretty it was. They had the original font, and the outside of the temple is 99% replica of the temple the pioneers made.
This is the original door from the jail, the middle hole is the bullet hole that kille Hyrum, and the hole on the side is where they broke the lock to get in the room
